Review Baltimore Fleet St Kitchen

June 8, 2016

Hey Peeps – Here’s My Review:

**Just so you know when we go out to eat everyone starts out at a five on a scale from 1 to 10you can either go up or down depending on food service and decor so keep that in mind on review ?. I am a tough cookie – just so ya know.

We made a reservation this past Saturday for 5 PM 2pp FLEET ST. KITCHEN – BALTIMORE, MDI couldn’t wait to get there to see the space and taste the food! I’d heard a review on this & really was looking forward to it. The menu seems modern American new farm to table. We arrived about 10 minutes early Saturday & sat outside in the alleyway between their sister pizza joint BAGBY PIZZA just across from Fleet Street. Unfortunately they wouldn’t open doors until 4:53 – ? annoying. *(If you have a reservation at 5 o’clock aren’t you ready to go a little while prior? Just saying….). Anywho – finally we were let in – waited in foyer than few minutes later we were seated.

Beautiful Interior FLEET ST. KITCHEN BALTIMORE, MD

It was beautiful. The mix of rustic wood a stunning plaid banquet wood trim and then crystal chandeliers. That ying & yang thing – one of my favorite combos. We started with a amuse bouche of borist and tangy delicate goats cheese – so pretty – love……

MENU & AMUSE BOUCHE

The menu was nice – clear – layed out nicely & easy to follow. We were told that they have three farms that they procure their hogs and their vegetables from. Everything locally sourced when possible. I had a “mocktail” muscat mule non alcoholic with extra ginger ( love my ginger more is always better) .

Muscat Mule “MOCKTAIL” Extra Ginger For ME!!!!!

Chilled Potato Leek Soup {CRISFIELD, MD}Fresh Maryland crab, confit potato, pesto,
charred lemon ash – looks beautiful but waaaaaayyyy to thick – more like a paste and the crab had a “fishy” taste (not in the good way)

Lovely ladies room – love the mix of wood and crystal throughout the space here!

So in short gang – I LOVE BALTIMORE – so many new great places popping up. You gotta go to the harbor and try them out great hotels and shopping as well.

My review is as follows:

Food: 5.75

Service: 7 (we had to wait quite a while between courses – not as attentive considering we were first in DR and no one else really arrived until 6:15 – however server was pleasant and knowledgeable)

Presesntation: 8

Decor/Atmosphere: 7

Would I go back? Maybe – however so many other places to try – I will be going soon to Bagby Pizza to try the “coal fire pizza” soon – I’m a pizza connoisseur in case ya didn’t know. HAHA. So def. stay tuned for that.

Heading out to finish my bike ride – already did 4 miles this a.m. 2 more to go – gearing up for Bermuda end of the month quick

R & R. Than first BOD mtg for our community – I will be our “cluster’s” spokesperson – whoa baby! Still purging my closet and reorganizing – pics at the end of the week after long overdue IKEA trip.
